Sunday Project

You know how when you finish a project there are always leftovers? Well mine end up in a drawer and never never in the waste basket no matter how small the piece is. Of course these are great for appliqués and I do use a lot. However, I have made a
decision, even before the New Year, to use as much of the leftovers as I can immediately after I finish my projects This is why I decided to make some new place mats with fabric, by Sandy Jarvais, Holly Jolly, which I used to make my Secret Santa projects. For the next two weeks I will have several luncheon get-togethers, so these will be perfect .

The pattern came from the latest Quilter's World.. I decided to eliminate the holly appliqués, as I found it would be too busy,

  2. Oh, Joan those are just lovely! But what is really funny is that magazine is sitting on my reading table with a couple of pieces of fabric marking that pattern...
